Plant details
An amazing Australian, evergreen, woody perennial. It has a great pack of grass-like leaves at ground level which radiate out from the centre of a tall, thin, vertical trunk. In its native south-western Australia it can reach 2.7m high but don't expect that over here. Initially slow growing, it blooms irregularly in spring producing white flowers which attract plenty of bees. Needs excellent drainage and hot, sunny conditions. Withstands droughts.
